Police said during the June 2009 robbery, one of the men shot and killed her.

"She was a human being who had a soul and a life and these three took that from her,” said Garcia.

Since the shooting, the cases have dragged on.

Marvin Aguilar-Lopez, believed to be the shooter, was sentenced to 40 years in 2013. Pablo De Leon-Ortiz got 35. Francisco Melgar-Cabrera fled to El Salvador after the shooting, and was extradited to New Mexico this month.

Garcia thought that meant it was all beginning to come to a close, but she found out via letter that Aguilar-Lopez wants to go back to El Salvador.

“It made me cry,” said Garcia. “Yeah -- it made me very angry, again. He should be serving that time here in the U.S."

She longs for the days of no more letters and courtrooms.

In terms of the status of that transfer, the Department of Justice was unable to be reached for comment.
